The people (but IBM managed to destroy that too).
Flexibility is second to none.
Global footprint.
Low salary.
Had my salary deducted too in my final year. You wouldn't think that would be the case, but IBM reserves the right to alter your salary. I almost considered legal action, but thought better of it and decided to just leave this toxic environment.
SoftLayer and Bluemix are no match against AWS.

Stop letting go of good people.
Interviews with Red Hat HR. Asked about current and desired salary. Asked about past experiences, career plan, and what the main difficulties faced in their career were and how to deal with them.
It was good. All questions were clear, and everything was explained, including expectations from the candidate, the job profile, team vision, working hours, and work-life balance. Overall, it was a good experience.
Previous personal and technical aptitude tests. Interviews with various IBM architects. All of them disorganized, without a clear definition of the tasks for the role being hired for. Recruitment interview with Human Resources.
